History textbooks hold knowledge, shaping the cognition and emotion of the
past of human being, especially make an extensive and powerful influence in the
stage of compulsory education. In this article, the junior high school Taiwanese
history textbook was taken as the basis research text to explore several
conformation of history of Taiwan in different aspects of educational
development, and the multiple forces that affect the presentation of its
content.
There are three major stages of development in Taiwan history education. The "
Editorial Version " started in 1954, in this stage the right to edit
textbooks is given to the central government. Since then the content of
textbooks is controlled by the country for about 40 years. The history of
Taiwan can only be fragments attached to "National history". For the first
time to separate Taiwan history out into an individual book is in 1994 the
"Eighty-Three Years Course Standards". 《The Understanding of Taiwanese
History》 constructed full context Taiwanese history textbook and at the same
time meant the change of official view of history. From 2000 to now on, due
to the voice of folk education reform, the government promote nine-years of
consistent education and to let available the nongovernmental people to edit
textbooks. That was the start of "Verified Version".
The Verified Version allows people to edit textbooks so Taiwan history
education should be given more possibilities. The content should be pluralistic,
to show the vitality of innovation in history. But according to my experience in
class, the content of textbooks of several publishers are not only highly
similar, but also has little difference to 《The Understanding of Taiwanese
History》, which was edited 20 years ago, only modify the words and expand
the contents.
As a result, this article eventually hopes to clarify the possible factors of
the current stagnation of Taiwan history education through finishing the
development of Taiwan history textbook.
